What is the output of lpstat -t on your linux system?
When you print from linux what command do you use?

It looks like you are calling the printer the wrong name in
your smb.conf file. It must match "exactly" one of the
names returned by lpstat.

Hello,

I'm trying to get priting working from a Windows XP box to a printer
that's been shared via SAMBA.

I can browse the printer fine, and can print fine from linux, but not from
Windows.

The following errors appear in the SAMBA log for the windows host I'm printing from:

lp: unable to print file: client-error-not-found
lpstat: Unknown destination "level3-bw"!

The error_log for CUPS, reports:

print_job: resource name '/printers/lvl3-bw' no good!

For reference, here's my smb.conf:



[lvl3-bw]
comment = level 3 printer
path = /var/spool/samba/
read only = No
guest ok = Yes
printable = Yes
printer name = level3-bw

Help please, I'm pulling my hair out over this.
